SECOND INTERIM REPORT ON THE CORROSION BEHAVIOR OF ZIRCALOY-3
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4328604
At the present state of testing Zircaloy-3A continues to show better corrosion propenties than do the 3B and 3C compositions. In the 750 deg F steam test Zircaloy-3A is superior to Zircaloy-2 in that the past-transition rate is lower by about 20%. Indications based on results from transfer experiments are that a similar favorable ratio of past-transition corrosion rates exist at 680 and 600 deg F. In the pre-transition region Zircaloy-2 and Zircaloy-3A, B, and C are indistinguishable. (auth)
